My flowmaster on my 97 F150 is rotting out so I need to replace it. I found a guy with a stock exhaust off of a 2000 F150 (same package, 4x4, ext cab, flareside) with only 500 miles on it. At this point, I don't want to drop big bucks on an exhaust system, so any ideas on whether or not this would work? His stock exhaust is but about 6" in front of the muffler. I don't mind a little fab work if it saves me big bucks.

Thanks!
Joe
